What are you backing Today? Part 2

Ribhi 2.25Nm
2l behind Noble Truth when unlucky @ Donny last season, and his Free Handicap 3rd looked a pipe-opener for this season.
3/1 B365
 
A plea for help...

Can some kind soul please explain to me exactly what Twilight Calls has done to merit 3/1 favouritism for the Palace House?

Full disclosure, I've had a few cans this evening (beer, not beans) so maybe I'm not seeing things straight but, I mean, fur fuxake...
 
Nothing formwise. He does however look like a progressive handicapper and that might be enough in a race where the second fav is an Ascot specialist. I've backed Hurricane Ivor even though 5f on fast ground might be a tad on the short side for him.
 
Stone of destiny 240g 5/1 boosted to 6/1 bet 365.
A very frustrating under achiever.
2nd in this last year off 5lb higher.
Last year it was worth £13000
This year £25000.
Seems to find trouble regularly.7th last time but only beaten 1.75L.

In this 3.15 atGwd, surely Lady Hayes is 'way too long at 10/1? Should be the same price as Save A Forest.

Close second, clear of the third and well ahead of Save A Forest.

Still, a profit is a profit is a profit... got me back the money I lost on the double I had that included Shine So Bright but the other one let me down badly.
 
Palace House - Hurricane Ivor overpriced at 8/1, 4 places available. Fear the fav despite the lack of form relative to his price but the rest are a bit meh, esp Tis Marvellous who would only be interesting is this was at Ascot.

I've been on Coroebus for the Guineas since his loss in the Royal Lodge when 365 went 20/1. I have been putting Native Trail in doubles all spring and have nice cover on him and it should be between the two.

In the 5.25 I've backed Harry Three who re-opposes the two that beat him over c/d at the Craven meeting. I think track position favoured those two that day and I'm hoping to get 6s.
 
I like Whenthedealinsdone for the 3.00 at Newmarket. He nearly qualified for the longshot thread, but anyway, he improved a very fair amount after being gelded and won first time out last season too. I feel there's more to come.

A rare lumpy three-cross for me today:

Strike Red
Movin Time
Astro King

Strike Red rears in the stalls and Astro King's jockey makes a total arse of the ride - not saying he would/should have won, just that he could have done better - so Movin Time will probably **** up.

Should never have been favourite but did run well.
